Pupils get exclusive access to BBC senior management for BBC School Report

Harlington School pupils are today at the BBC HQ in West London interviewing three senior BBC executives: in charge of BBC Comedy, Chris Sussman, in charge of BBC Entertainment, Mark Lindsay and BBC1 and BBC3 scheduler Kate Phillips.
